Zone fossils
Thu, 05/07/2009 - 20:40I studied for 38 years the early Namurian flora in the river Geul valley in the very sourh east of the Netherlands.
Because of plants are no reliable zone fossils I make use of goniatites.
Goniatites are very reliable zone fossils for the namurian from easteren Europe to the north of the US.
I use the German publication " Die Goniatiten im Namur des Niederreinisch-Westfalischen Karbongebietes".
It is possible to relate horizonts to those in Derbyshire.

Concrete? Derbyshire?

I've had a quick look and think about this, but nothing concrete came to mind. Conodonts might be an idea?
Concrete? Derbyshire? You must mean Blue Circle Cement!
And yes, I do realise that only a select few people will actually get the very poor attempt at humour above!

Zone fossils
Submitted by Matt on Wed, 03/28/2007 - 16:24.I'm looking for information about zone fossils in the Visean and early Namurian in England (specifically Derbyshire). Can anyone reccomend any books that give specific date ranges for fossils more precise than say 'Visean-Namurian' or 'Lower Carboniferous'? This seems to be about as specific as the books I have go.
